Ah 4th of July weekend. Perfect for picnics, get-togethers and all kinds of fun. Celestra and I got to enjoy this to the fullest on Friday and Saturday. We spent the afternoon with my family (the Browns) after I got off work and Cele got done with Opera practice on Friday until it was time for her to go spend time with her dad. That night I went to the fireworks with my fam and Cele went with her grandma Eiko and her dad's girlfriend and her little boy.
Saturday afternoon Celestra went to the parade in Hyrum with her dad and then we met at Central park with some of my old high school friends and had our second ever 'friends reunion'. Unfortunately only 5 of us could come but we had fun anyways. It was great to see some of my friends from the good old days again and Celestra got to play with her cousins (Desiree's kids) as well as my other friends kids.
A little fact about those of us that showed up for the friends reunion: Two are sisters (Desiree and I); Two are sister-in-laws (Shannah and Jessica); and one is married to another of our high school friends (Braden Hoth ~ he was home sick) but they were not high school sweethearts.
Then it was on to lunch/dinner with the Brown family at mom and dad's. I love getting together with that side of the family. It is always a lot of fun and I really enjoy spending time with my brother's and sisters, their spouses and all the nephews. Cele also loves getting to spend time with her Grandma and Grandpa and all her cousins.
Today we headed up the canyon to spend some time with Grandma Eiko, enjoy the scenery, and take lots of pictures! All in all it has been a very busy but very fun weekend. Hope everyone else had a great 4th of July as well.
